There is a a test version of ACID with app_rpt.c version 0.203 available
for download from http://dltest.allstarlink.org. This needs testing
before we move it over tho the main site.

NOTE: You must download the .iso file from dltest.allstarlink.org ad
burn a CD. Existing iso's will just get you the currently released
version from dl.allstarlink.org

Greetings to the group.

I downloaded and installed the new iso this weekend. When I uncommented the status reporting lines in rpt.conf, the following error was generated:

[Sep 14 07:10:28] ERROR[2478]: app_rpt.c:4407 statpost: exec of /bin/wget failed.

Updating the path to where the wget binary is installed corrects the error message and allows reporting to the allstar status page.

Original: statpost_program=/bin/wget,-q,--timeout=15,--tries=1,--output-document=/dev/null

Changed to: statpost_program=/usr/bin/wget,-q,--timeout=15,--tries=1,--output-document=/dev/null

Thanks to Stephen, K1LNX for pointing out how to determine the source of the error.

This is because ACID and Limey have wget in different places.

rpt.conf has been updated to have both sets of statpost lines commented
out so the user can choose which ones to uncomment.

The new rpt.conf will show up in a future release, but is available
drirectly from SVN or through our viewvc interface.
